Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Formed in Houston, Texas in 1982, the Dirty Rotten Imbeciles (D.R.I. for short) started from the remains of the hardcore band Suburbanites with Kurt Brecht on vocals, Spike Cassidy on guitar, Eric Brecht on drums, and Dennis Johnson on bass. Although the positions of bassist and drummer in the band would change, Kurt and Spike have remained in their positions since the beginning.The band has a very dedicated fanbase, despite Beavis and Butt-Head reviewing "Acid Rain" being about as much 'mainstream' attention as they got, and are probably best known as the Trope Namer and Trope Codifier of Crossover Thrash, and is a Trope Maker in the genre, along with Suicidal Tendencies, Stormtroopers of Death, The Cro-Mags, and many others.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Discography: 1983 — Dirty Rotten LP 1985 — Dealing With It 1987 — Crossover 1988 — 4 of a Kind 1989 — Thrash Zone 1992 — Definition 1995 — Full Speed Ahead

Appropriated Appellation: The name came from Kurt Brecht's father complaining about the group playing in his house and calling them "a bunch of dirty rotten imbeciles".

Broken Record: Equal People only has the lines "Look at you, then look at me/There's no difference I can see" repeated again and again. The lyrics of "Who Am I?" are also composed solely of the title and the retort "D-R-I!". "Reaganomics" has a total of four different words used in its lyrics: "Reagonomics killing me / Reaganomics killing me / Reaganomics killing me / Reaganomics killing you".
